Why I never doubt my diagnosis
It looks like I’m having a blogging day today. It always happens when I feel low. Which is, I suspect, caused by grief. I’m not totally sure though, I just know that I’m sad, pretty much since I woke up. Grief would make sense though. And obviously the war. Shirley, the radio station manager, was […]

Why everything I know about autism is wrong – dr Jac den Houting
I just watched the above speech and you know how I feel? It makes me sad. I can’t quite understand why, dr Jac is so confident on stage and they allowed themselves the comfort of appearing without shoes. Not that I’m jealous of that, I need both socks and shoes, unless I’m in bed, but […]

Unexpected events and me
It’s 17.14, I just came back home after the gym, cafe and stopover in Farmfoods. A while ago I bought a vegetarian product called Swedish falafel from there. A bit confusing as falafel is not Swedish, but I absolutely loved it. Today I felt like I really want it for dinner so I went there […]

Coping with unexpected events
I read an article today about an autistic girl who just started school and her mum asked the teacher to always explain to that girl at the beginning of the day what is going to happen, so that she doesn’t have to cope with unexpected events as those are stressing her out. And I thought, […]

I’m tired (again)
I really wonder what that is. I keep getting tired a lot for quite a while now. I wish to know if that can be due to peri menopause? Or maybe I’m just tired of constant change? There’s been so much of it since pretty much when I got discharged from the hospital in January […]

I had a bath
And I feel a bit better. I am hoping that I will be able to sleep tonight without olanzapine again. I do not feel too triggered, thank god, but I am not totally calm either. I finally realised I cannot go to Poland and also, that possibly I need my sick note extended. It’s a […]
